90' @ z2 this morning. Finally got my act together enough to leave the house in time to get in a decent ride before work.

what big event(s) are you training for, jsut?

sounds like you have an ambitious plan this year, and i'm genuinely curious as to your targets.

Enjoy! I think almost all of the roads are back to normal (except for the section by the river between Piermont and Nyack).

1:05 last night on the rollers. z4 intervals 5x6x2. First time I used the "Workout" feature on my Edge 500. Pretty cool.

Derailed over the last couple of weeks. With a combination of colder weather (and me being wimpy), some odd back and neck pain, and my daughter starting basketball season I have found it extremely easy to miss workouts. I've jogged some been on the bike a little but not as much as I should. I also have been eating too much and not as well as I should :o

haven't totally figured it out yet. i know i want to try to get my 1 upgrade next year, as well as try to do something at the bigger races near me. I also have nationals, states, and a couple of local races that are kind of important to me.

8 times up the my local 1' hill. I alternated between big gear (53/13) and higher cadence (85-90 rpm). I was going to do 10 times up the hill, but at 8 I had to call it or fall off my bike. My HR was at least a good 10 bpm low. I was doing RPE 18-19 for a minute and never even hitting Z5 on HR. I'm starting to over-reach, for sure. 1 more hard ride on Saturday and then a rest week.

Oh ya, duh. Day 9 of a 10 day cycle of Augmentin for an ear infection probably isn't helping the HR response, either.

1:20 mostly ez yesterday morning. Legs finally starting to feel less stiff - nearly the same avg watts yesterday as the day before felt way easier. Today will be time to ramp it up a bit more.

I get asked everyday why I limp so bad...
Side effect of being in shape I guess.
